<p>I suspect that David Hearne et &quot;al&quot; is a NOM crony.</p>
<p>He and NOM generally, fail for one reason. We as GLBT citizens are comprised of every race, nationality, gender and sex.</p>
<p>NOM just doesn&#39;t get it. Sexual orientation is ubiquitous and unchosen across every community regardless of race, nationality OR sexual &quot;preference&quot;.

<p>As for Paris, it&#39;s a BIG CITY. It has it&#39;s good parts and not so good parts. The Paris 99% of visitors will be in is beautiful and reasonably safe. Paris and France does indeed have a large North African immigrant population that culturally is VERY anti-gay. Many live in housing similar to housing projects in the U.S., and they have the same attitudes and swagger as many people raised in U.S. urban housing projects have. But Paris is different from typical American cities in that the Paris&#39;s suburbs are where the &#39;bad&#39; neighborhoods are located.</p>douglas commented on 'Gay Couple Brutally Beaten in Paris Attack'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c730253ef017c387685fb970b2013-04-09T06:14:28Z2013-04-09T07:30:26Zdouglasnot only are gay bashings increasing, jew bashings are increasing too. hmmm, i wonder why. let's blame the catholics. hahahahahaha....<p>not only are gay bashings increasing, jew bashings are increasing too. hmmm, i wonder why. let&#39;s blame the catholics. hahahahahaha. wikipedia says since the early 2000s, the catholic church has been losing millions of followers. they are closing churches left and right. islam is the fastest growing religion in the world. there are seven countries in the world that impose the death penalty for being gay and all seven are muslim countries. and you still want to bash catholics??????</p>Kev C commented on 'Gay Couple Brutally Beaten in Paris Attack'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c730253ef017d42a567ea970c2013-04-09T05:36:04Z2013-04-09T07:30:26ZKev CErnest, did you visit the 19th Arr.?

But this is not a done deal. Hollande&#39;s government is in a very weak and vulnerable position and he is not a politician of great conviction.
